Dear, Hi, all. I am a servlet newbie, come from a PHP world.
Currently, I am testing a tomcat 4.0.1 on RH7.2 installation for a auction site project. As asked by my boss, i have to make a little report on what tools should we use in writing the project (java servlet vs. php) As i come from a php world, we found that php development is very efficience and fast. The biggest problem(?) i found in servlet developement is the deployment descriptor file (web.xml). I have 2 -3 peoples working on different locations, using Windows 2000 as their workstation and put files thru ftp. Maintaining one copy of web.xml at development time seems pretty ... trouble and preblmetic (?) at a first glance. And sometimes accompany with a restart of the servlet container.... What i want to ask is: 1) Are there any website that help php coders to go thru it? (if there are such :P ) 2) The design of directory structure, web.xml's URL-servlet mapping looks like a topic to me, which can further to be discussed for a better or flexible design? What are you guys would do in writing the web.xml file? Sorry for my poor english.
